I had posted about Paint.NET a very powerful replacement for Paint, GIMP, Photoshop etc.Paint.NET has been updated to new version i.e 3.5.1 Existing users can use the built in updater and new users can go to the website and download it.This is the first time you can see the background auto updater in action.

Changes and fixes since v3.5:

New: For Windows 7, added taskbar progress(superbar progress) reporting for long running operations (effects, adjustments, Image->Resize, save, install)

• Changes to corrections to the French translation
• Running setup with /auto will no longer launch Paint.NET when it’s done.
• Fixing up an issue where Paste into New Image would refuse an image on the clipboard, even if regular Paste would take it.
• Fixing up a race condition with Edit->Paste and Image->Resize whereby it would take up 100% CPU and take between 1 minute to 1 hour to finish.
• Fixing of issues with Copy/Paste where it would leave an extra line of transparent pixels on the left, top, right, and/or bottom edges
• Fixed lag with the paintbrush tool that was being seen on some systems
• Fixed some issues with the paintbrush and eraser tool being misaligned when zoomed in
• Fixed a crash that would happen at (seemingly) random times, such as after drawing with the paintbrush tool, on some systems
• Fixed a minor and obscure rendering glitch with the Move Selected Pixels tool
• Fixed an issue with glass over Remote Desktop or Windows 7 Virtual PC
• Fixed a minor glitch whereby the “Unsaved Changes” confirmation dialog could never finish rendering the image thumbnail if one of the Move tools was active
